Early Lessons Learnt from Cash Transfer Interventions in Post-Matthew Haiti
Summary: UNDP review of early lessons from cash transfer programming after Hurricane Matthew, which affected about a fifth of Haiti's population.
Key Findings
- Hurricane Matthew affected 2.1 million people, about 19 percent of Haiti's population, which is the scale the cash response was designed against.
- Draws operational lessons on cash transfer design and delivery rather than evaluating outcomes.
- Prepared for UNDP Haiti's Poverty Reduction Unit as a consultant review.
Full Description
A review for UNDP Haiti's Poverty Reduction Unit of early lessons from cash transfer interventions following Hurricane Matthew in October 2016. It examines how cash-based responses were designed and delivered at a point when Matthew had affected roughly one in five Haitians, and draws operational lessons for future use of cash in the Haitian context.
